Educational attitudes play a role in success
A true story, the first time I read it and I liked it very much, so I wanted to share it with you
The fifth grade teacher stood up one day and said to the students the sentence: “I love you all,” while excluding in herself a student named Teddy!!
His clothes are always very dirty
His academic level is very low and he is withdrawn into himself.
This unfair judgment on her part was based on what she observed during the year
He does not play with the children and his clothes are dirty
He always needs a bathroom
He was so depressed that she found pleasure in correcting his papers with a red pen
Mark it with a bold x and write the phrase “Fail” at the top
One day, he asked her to review each student's previous academic records, and while she was reviewing Teddy's file, she was surprised by something!
His first-grade teacher wrote about him: Teddy is a smart, talented child who does his work carefully and in an organized manner.
The second grade teacher: Teddy is an excellent student and loved by his colleagues, but he is upset because his mother is suffering from cancer.
As for the third grade teacher, he wrote: The death of his mother had a difficult impact on him. He made the best of his efforts, but his father was not interested in him, and life in his home would soon affect him if some measures were not taken.
While the fourth grade teacher wrote: Teddy is an introverted student who does not show interest in studying, has no friends, and falls asleep during class.
Here, Teacher Thompson realized the problem and felt ashamed of herself!
Her situation worsened when the students brought her Christmas presents wrapped with beautiful ribbons
Except for the student Teddy, his gift was wrapped in a bag taken from grocery bags.
Mrs. Thompson felt pain as she opened Teddy's gift, and the students laughed at his gift, which was a necklace made up of diamonds with missing stones and a perfume bottle with only a quarter in it.
But the students stopped laughing when the teacher expressed her admiration for the beauty of the necklace and perfume and thanked him warmly. She put on the necklace and put some of that perfume on her clothes.
That day, Teddy did not go home directly after studying
Rather, he waited to meet her and said: You smell like my mother today!
Then the teacher burst into tears because Teddy brought her the bottle of perfume that his mother used and found in his teacher the smell of his late mother!!
From that day on, she paid special attention to him, and his mind began to regain its activity. By the end of the year, Teddy had become the most distinguished student in the class. Then the lady found a note at her door for the student, Teddy, in which he wrote that she was the best teacher he had ever met in his life. She replied, “You are the one who taught me how to be a good teacher.”
After several years, this teacher was surprised to receive an invitation from the College of Medicine to attend the graduation ceremony of that year’s class, signed with the name of your son, Teddy.
She came wearing the same necklace and smelling of the same perfume....
?Do you know who's Teddy now
Teddy Stoddard is the most famous doctor in the world and owner of the Stoddard Cancer Treatment Center.
?!.. You see.. How many children have been destroyed by our schools due to mistreatment..
?!.. How many students have we destroyed their character
? ...........We have thousands of students like Teddy, but how many teachers like Mrs. Thompson
